Published by Janamat Prakashan, Santosh Lamichhane’s Porridge Eaters and Gruel Drinkers: A Nepali Poetry Collection is a wonderful anthology.

The book was launched in late September amidst a poetry function with much fanfare by the writer’s mother Bhawani Lamichhane and singer Hiranya Bhojpure. At the book launch, there was also children’s poetry competition and many amazing poems were recited at the stage.
